We are approaching the peak of snowmelt runoff for the year. Waters in the upper North Platte River above Seminoe Dam are running high. Both Rivers are at bankfull conditions. Please use caution when on or near rivers and streams. High waters during snowmelt can be cold and energetic and that increases the hazards in the event of falling in. High waters can also make stream banks unstable.
